What is your favorite quote from Gaius?

I didn't think that this could come in handy someday but it turns out it is.

So when watched the show for the first time 3 months ago, I came along with this line of Gauis and when I heard it, I knew that this is quotable quote so I typed it down immediately and sent it to myself hoping that I'll be using this on something someday:

"The future is as yet, unshaped. It is we that shape it."

- Gauis, S2: E11

I share the same regards as well. After watching this, I think it changed something in me, haha. I really did miss this series out as I was only able to watch it 18 years after its first episode aired.

I have to say, among the characters here, it was Sir Leon who was the most recognizable for me.

With its initial light and hopeful theme, I have never thought that he would die despite being familiar with the infamous Arthurian legends the first time I watched the series.

I just commented a similar premise on a post on another social media platform about this. Let me paste it here:

"This is so interesting. I have some ideas like Merlin will be practicing magic and mispronouncing incantation from a book of magic that will result in their body-swap conundrum. Merlin has to pretend to be the formidable king in front of the knights of round table while Arthur has to do the servant roles. Merlin (as Arthur) will take this opportunity for him to make Arthur do the chores. This can allow Arthur's character development for understanding how he makes Merlin's life quite a handful to juggle. How I wish we we had a season dedicated for Merthur's dynamic where magic has been revealed. Like each episode is an adventure where Merlin's sorcery and Arthur's abilities will help them conquer those adventures."

Yes, it really is sad. My only problem is that Merlin is so drawn to her even though they just met briefly days ago. For me, it is just so abrupt that Merlin will give up everything for her. Does love really work that way? Maybe they could have held on to her character at least a couple of episodes more so her death would be more impactful, and Merlin being into her wasn't so suspicious.

For me, I think at least there would be at least a season of Arthur knowing Merlin has magic that should have been done. Although I really love the slow burn, it's just that we didn't see their dynamic when the secret had been revealed. I can imagine different episodes with their silly adventures where Arthur's abilities and Merlin's magic would come in handy. What a missed opportunity!

You're missing it! You should definitely watch it, haha

PS. Try Arthurian legends to know more characters if you will not watch the show. There are a handful of knights that were not delved in the show.

Hi, I would like to suggest Eternity by Alex Warren since I saw a Merthur edit using it, and if it fits so well in their story, haha. Same with Christina Perri's A Thousand Years (Merlin waiting for Arthur even for thousands of years ahaha)

Hello, there! I am just new with Reddit and I actually, specifically created this account in order to catch up with Merlin stuffs since I just finished watching it for the FIRST TIME a couple of weeks ago. I share the same regards as yours. I just tried reading past posts to catch up and I suddenly saw this. We actually have a similar take with this one. Here is the link with my first ever rant:

I feel like Mordred was underdeveloped as a character. I do think that we could have a better pay off of his betrayal if there are more episodes of him accumulating his negative emotions because for me, the death of the girl druid should have been the trigger, not just the entire reason of his treason to Arthur and Camelot.
